Today I'd like to show you information about Cologne City and the Rhine River Cruises in Germany. I hope the information would be useful for you someday. Through my blog, you could have some useful information about Cologne and Rhine River Cruises, I hope.

As you know, Cologne is one of the most famous city Germany. There are many sightseeing spots in Cologne, Germany. Of course, I can't give you all of information about Cologne and Rhine River Cruises information only one time. Today I show you some pictures(Cologne Cathedral and Rhine River Cruises). If
you have fun, I would be very happy.

1Cologne City in Germany

Cologne is very famous for the Cologne Cathedral. ↓

Cologne Cathedral is very easy to go from the Cologne station.

Many tourists visit the Cologne Cathedral.

I think many people were impressed with the Cologne Cathedral.

The Cologne Cathedral is one of the world heritages in the world. If you
visit Germany, I recommend you to watch the Cologne Cathedral. It is worth visiting. And it is
adjacent to the Cologne station, that’s why you can find it very easily. On the
day, I stayed in the hotel near the station. When I was in Cologne, it was
summer. That’s why I recommend you to stay in hotel with air conditioner, if you go there in summer. There
are some hotels without air conditioner in the area. So you should check it,
when you book hotel in summer. In my case, it was very hot, and no air
conditioner, so, I opened the window at night. But it was very noisy
outside. I remembered I couldn't sleep well on the day.

2Rhine River Cruise

After the visit of Cologne Cathedral, I went to the Rhine river
cruise on the next day. During the Rhine River Cruise, you can enjoy the amazing scenery along the river.Of course you can see the very famous rock, "Loreley".

AHow to go there

In
my case, I got on the train bounding for “Koblenz” at the Cologne station. And I changed
the train at the Koblenz station. And I got on the train bounding for “St.Goarshausen” at
the Koblenz station. The port for the Rhine River Cruise is near the
St.Goarshausen station. You can arrive there in a few minutes.

This is my case ↓ ※To make sure, I recommend you to check the exact time.

“The Cologne station”→”The Koblenz”→“The St.Goarshausen”

（train 50 min）(train 50 min)

BHow
to get on ship

I recommend you to book the cruise on
the internet before you go there. In my case, I reserved the cruise before I go
there. Because it was summer season, many people took vacation. I booked “KD
Rhine” on the internet. It was very nice ! http://www.kdrhine.com/

I got on the ship at the St.Goarshausen
port. The ship was very comfortable. The fee of the ship was about 44 Euros.(Between
St.Goarshausen and Bingen) It depends on the distance.

This is the scenery of the St.Goarshausen port. ↓

CThe
scenery from the ship

It was marvelous !! Especially when I
saw the “Loreley” , I was very impressed.

You can see “Loreley” just after the St.
Goarshausen on your left hand. Don’t miss it. In addition to it, you can see
many old castle along the river.

These pictures are "Loreley". You can't miss it.

DThe
other information

It
took about 3 hours to go to Bingen from St.Goarshausen. After getting off the ship, I got on the train at the station near the port.
